Handful Of Rain
Watching You Fall
Piano: The left hand is playing an ocative bass. F to a higher F &
G to a higher G. Roll them quickly.
The right hand is playing Gm to F. You start the Gm chord one
beat after you play the higher G in the bass. Follow this pattern
through all 3 verses.
Verse 1 ( Gm to F )
There in the dark there's a child and she's waiting.
Lost in the maze of a fait accomoli.
Is it a crime to be just hesitating?
While were pretending that we never see.
(The song builds up in Gm)
CmGmGmCmCm/AbBb
On a T---V mounted on the wall.
CmGmGmCmCm/AbBb
From this dista--nce I can see it all.
CmGmGmCmAbBbCm
And I've been out here. Watching you Watching you fall.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay all you piano Dudes and Dudettes....When it hits Cm your fill
is based on these chords. Keep a C sustained for the bass note
throughout pattern:
CmGmFmEb
Here are the actual notes in the scale: I broke them down into four groups
to make it easier.
EbCGC / DBbGBb / CAbFAb / BbGEb /
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse 2 (Gm to F)
Is there a trick to the art of not feeling.
Safe in our world while another's child bleeds.
Praying that GOD won't demand a redealing.
Of the cards we have held and pretened you don't need.
(Repeat bridge and chorus from above)
DmA/C#CG/B
Better not to think about it. And in time we'll start to doubt it.
BbCDmC
Christ has risen. Keep him hidden. God forbid He sees.
DmA/C#CG/B
It's not that we lack the vision. Only just a quick decision.
BbCDmC
Who will blame us? Rules restrain us. It's all in History.
(guitar solo is rhythm is Gm to Dm)
Verse 3 (Gm to F)
So close my eyes and pretened I am sleeping.
Avoiding the chance that you'll visit my dreams.
(Repeat the bridge and chorus)
AbBbAbBb
Watching you Watching you Watching you Watching you etc..
Cm
Fall Piano riff....(end in Cm)
